Land of Living Skies

Religious number plates are not allowed but Rob Hardwick, Executive Archdeacon, managed to sneak Joshua 1:9 in. Saskatchewan is well named 'Land of the Living Skies'. Skyscapes was term I came across as a student; and very beautiful and inspiring they are too.
I'm back from Diocesan Council which had a positive and well natured feel to it. It's good beginning to get to know people in the Diocese - like Vicki and Patty from Gordon's First Nation reserve. We remember a former chief who has just died suddenly at the age of 52. His wake and service is on Monday. Meanwhile all is very quiet in Regina as their beloved 'Roughriders' have a game (not match, I'm told) this afternoon. After 3 consecutive wins this game is critical if they are to make it to the play-offs. Bishop Greg started the Council with his rewording of the Riders theme song where the colour was purple instead of green and so it went on. Got us off to a good start.
